To-day has been marked on both sides of the bay by a general super-saturation of the 

 atmosphere and consequent precipitation from it, followed and accompanied by a rise of 

 temperature. We see the signs of the approach of another southerly gale on the eastern side 

 of Cape Adare which will, if normal, later sweep across the cape into and across the bay.

The interesting point of this day's notes is that to all appearances the fall of snow was heavier 

 on the E. side of the bay and not on the W. side. Otherwise the day was characterised by nuieli 

 the same type of weather on either side of the bay.
